Resumo(s)
This study characterizes the electroanalytical behavior of the carbamate pesticide formetanate
hydrochloride (FMT) at a cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes
(fMWCNT) modified glassy carbon electrode (CoPc-fMWCNT/GCE). Nafion1 was used to improve
solubility and dispersibility of fMWCNT. The construction of the developed electrode was characterized
by high-resolution field-emission gun scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, cyclic
voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. FMT exhibited a behavior consistent with a
three-step reaction of the electrochemical-chemical-electrochemical mechanistic type at CoPcfMWCNT/
GCE (three anodic peaks at 0.26, 0.55 and 1.2 V, and two cathodic peaks at 0.35 and 0.50 V
vs. Ag/AgCl/3 M KCl). Highly reproducible and well-defined peaks were obtained at the optimum
experimental conditions (Britton-Robinson buffer at pH 5.0, accumulation potential 1.55 V, accumulation
time 5 s, frequency 100 s-1, amplitude 30 mV, and scan increment 3 mV). Peak currents were found to be
proportional to the FMT concentrations in the range of 9.80*10-8 to 3.92*10-6 mol dm-3 with a detection limit (LOD) of 9.7*10-8 mol dm-3. The modification of GCE with CoPc-fMWCNT enhanced the electrocatalytic activity and provided high sensitivity (3.51 A mol-1dm3). The developed electroanalytical methodology was successfully applied to FMT residue analysis in mango and grape samples with recoveries in the range of 94.2+_4.5 to 105.7+_1.8%. The proposed electroanalytical approach represents a reliable, sensitive and environmental friendly analytical alternative for determination of FMT.
